A Lovely View in the Far South of LA County

Except for the giant corrugated pipe, you'd never know you were in LA, would you? Or even in the 21st century? A path to this viewing spot and a fairly steep, rough path leading down for an even better view, runs unannounced and unsigned, right next to a multi-million dollar estate in Palos Verdes, on Paseo del Mar. This is what the big bucks buy--views like this. I think that's a good investment, myself.
